My contract with Verizon is going to be up in a couple of months and I'm looking at the Storm. Would love to hear any comments from those who have it. (Currently using a Razr)

I have a friend who has a storm and isn't that happy with it. I tried it out myself and didn't like it. There is a considerable lag time if the phone is doing a lot of processing. Push a button and nothing happens for a bit. It isn't nearly as intuitive as an iPhone. I personally don't like the feel of the pushable touch screen. If it were me, I would get the Lg dare. I wasn't impressed with this phone. Now if Verizon sold the BB bold...I would probably go with that. YMMV.My contract with Verizon is going to be up in a couple of months and I'm looking at the Storm. Would love to hear any comments from those who have it. (Currently using a Razr)

I've got a Blackberry 8310. It is not a cellphone, it is a blackberry device though.
nokia e51.
seems like there are no phones made for me.
Rant, stop reading if not interested.
i want it sturdy and easy to use without it beeing a "sporty" model or "cheapo" model. i want it to look and feel like its worth something. no flimsy plastics that creak if i twist it. make it out of metal if neccessary! nokia high end N-series phones some are/were metallic.. but pricing is out of space and they have things i dont want!
no closing lids, no slides, no big screens that scrach easily, bigger buttons instead the big screen. loooong runtime instead of latest video showing capabilities, loong warranty and make them last some abuse like the old models that could be dropped out of speeding car and picked up and dusted and used for years! easy battery off or shutdown (now days u need to press shutdown button with a pen or something similat to get enuff pressure on it or go thru menus.. old days just press release button and battery dropped and phone stops that annoying racket its making.. ie ringing!)
and finally, less buttons! i think i have 31 buttons in my phone and some of those have more functions than 1 in them.. like one by cliking and other by pressing. there is atleast 5-10 buttons that one could live without!
You're saying your 8310 is a Blackberry and not a phone? Its first and foremost a phone, that's its primary function and its in the PDA category not blackberry category that is why its sold by cellphone companies. To top it off your 8310 Curve only has EDGE it doesnt even have 3G so surfin and downloading is so slow.
